【 The General Characteristic of Karma 业果】it can be the tiniest sin 很小很小的恶事

【The General Characteristic of Karma】- it can be the tiniest sin

【And also:  
Do not scorn even the tiniest sin,  
Thinking that it will do no harm;  
It is through the accumulation
of drops of water
That a great vessel gradually
fills. 】

Though it can be the tiniest sin, but you should certainly not overlook it and think that it will do no harm.  Drop by drop, a great vessel will be filled. The sutra of Kṣitigarbha also says this.  Actually, we should know that any aggregate made of thousands of objects will begin from what?  They were added up from having one, two, three, four and so on. This is what we should understand.  Therefore, we often overlook this.  Ah!  We seem to feel that with small things, we do not need to care so much.  As soon as you have this careless attitude, it is over!  You will continually be in this careless state of mind.  Then for your entire life, perhaps even a long eon will have passed in carelessness.  This is very important!  Every one of us should examine ourselves here.

业果 : 很小很小的恶事

【又云：「虽有极少恶，勿轻念无损，如集诸水滴，渐当满大器。」】

虽然很小的一点点小的恶事，千万不要忽视，以为无关紧要，就这么一滴一滴滴下来啊，一个很大的容器集满了。《地藏经》上面也这么说。实际上我们要晓得成千上万的东西都是从什么啊？从一开始，这一、二、三、四这样加起来，这个我们要了解。所以我们往往忽视，唉！觉得好像小的马马虎虎，你心里一有这个马虎的话，完了！你一直就这个起心动念始终在这个马虎当中，于是呢你一生、长劫就这么马虎过去了。这个很重要哦！我们每一个人在这个地方检查一下。
